Festivus... for the rest of us!

[wrenlet]

I don't even remember where I first heard that particular holiday
motto but it's always given me a giggle. That and some of my online
pals call this time of year "Giftmas"... anyway. I stumbled on* a rec
for a Christmas album for (some of) the rest of us: The Jethro Tull
Christmas Album.

No, I am not making this up.

I'm thinking this just might... slip into my cart while I'm shopping.

* Okay, yes, I saw it originally at Making Light :D

whole thread is alternately thought provoking and cute and one comment
in particular cracked me up right here at the office. Posted by

I love the "War on Christmas"

You see, I am a non-specific goddess worshiper. Married to a converted
Jew, who was raised Methodist.
Raised by a Catholic who married and excommunicated Mormon.
Who has a 4 year old who celebrates the Holidays with her grandparents
and her gay Buddhist uncle and his African-American baptist boyfriend,
who invited the whole clan to a Kwanzaa party.

Sometimes, I really enjoy being part of the problem.
